Considerations for Initiation and Maintenance of Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa for Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background As Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses, motor fluctuations become increasingly difficult to manage with oral medications. Foslevodopa/foscarbidopa (LDp/CDp), delivered as a continuous 24‐h/day subcutaneous infusion, offers continuous levodopa delivery and stable plasma levodopa levels that reduce motor fluctuations. LDp/CDp has been

Continuous Subcutaneous Versus Intestinal Levodopa Infusion for Parkinson's Disease: A Real‐World, Monocentric, Observational Study and Critical Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Subcutaneous foslevodopa‐foscarbidopa (SCFF) is a novel, non‐surgical dopaminergic infusion therapy for better controlling motor fluctuations in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, there are scarce real‐world data on efficacy, adverse events and comparisons with other infusion strategies. Objectives Here, we aimed to provide

Shifts in phenology influence synchrony of flowering plants and their pollinators along an elevation gradient

Oikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions alter the phenology of species, which may threaten the synchrony of biotic interactions. However, how phenological synchrony across entire communities of plants and their pollinators responds to varying environmental conditions remains poorly understood.

The Impact of Public Administration Education on Individual Policy Capacity of Federal Civil Servants in Ethiopia

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent decades, policy capacity has garnered increasing attention from scholars in the Global North. However, there has been limited focus on policy capacity in developing countries, particularly in Africa. While various factors, such as experience, the nature of policy tasks, and educational background, can influence the policy capacity of
